Yo! Today was SUPER FUN!!! It was the last day of BLOCKS too! W00t!!!
Anyway, after blocks, we went to play street. And boy, our physical fitness levels have dropped to below negative... :( We played, what, 3 minutes? and already we needed a water break. This is what 3 weeks of no excercise does to you. Argh. We had better work hard during training. Well, we played amongst ourselves for awhile before some guys came. And as much as i hate to admit it, to put it simply, we were trashed. Badly. Man, i feel so pathetic and n00b. Must train harder.
Oh well, enough about these depressing things. After street we (lynette, shao, qy, vic-ki, sylvia and i) went for lunch at subway. Sylvia and i had the safe and classic subway club. Shao had the also safe turkey breast. Lynette, qy and vic-ki on the other hand had sandwhiches which contained this thing called salami. I thought it was fish. Apparently, it's some sort of processed meat. Hmm. Whatever. I don't plan to try it anytime soon. Or ever.
Anyway, after lunch, we went to play pool! I won 3 games in a row. I was on a roll!!! And then, for the fourth game, vic-ki and i had to play scissors-paper-stone. The winner would be on shao's and sylvia's team while the loser would be on lynette's and qy's team. Sadly, i lost. And lynette and qy conspired together to end my winning streak. Evil ppl. Hmph. I still won 3 out of 4 games. The most no. of games won. So there. Well, shao also won 3 games... But who cares.
After pool, and buying Lynette's E string for her guitar, we went to the food court to eat, drink and chit-chat. Lynette had alr left by then, so it was just shao, qy, vic-ki, sylvia and i. When qy and i came back from buying our desserts, we saw vic-ki with her bio notes out. Imagine our shock and horror at that sight! So, understandably, we were wide-eyed and gaping. From there, the conversation turned to bio and how we all hated microbiology. We all prefer systems (digestive, repiratory, etc) instead. And from there, we somehow got to weird food... Oh yeah, we were talking about the prawn practical where we had to draw a prawn, and i told them that i once had to deshell and thus kill live prawns at a class steamboat dinner. Then we started talking about evil and atrocious acts to animals. For some reason, shao knew alot on the subject. She regaled us with tales of bonsai kittens and eating of live drunken prawns. We also discussed the eating of monkey's brains and the indonesian culture of eating half-developed chick fetus. Vic-ki learnt the most from that half-and-hour. I think that she is contemplating becoming a vegetarian. I would too if i didn't like my meat so much. Oh well.
Anyway, after that... informative discussion, qy, vic-ki and i went to take the mrt home (shao and sylvia took bus). Vic-ki went to take the red line whilst qy and i took the purple one (we were a dhoby ghaut). We should have just followed vic-ki. As it turned out, we had to take a detour to outram before going back to eunos/pasir ris. Oh well, at least now we know to take the red line at dhoby ghaut.
On the train ride, qy and i somehow got to discussing our next year's jersey colour. qy commented that white is rather plain and that red would be a good choice for next year's jersey. As far as un-plain colours go, we started throwing out ideas like lime green, orange with purple polka dots and... well you get the idea. We finally settled on yellow with black stripes. Bumblebee! You know how some basketball teams have names? We thought of naming ourselves "the bees". Then we thought that we should name ourselves hwa chong something so that we can have the initials hcjc. We came up with a few names (juguar and cheetahs, jumping chinchillas, jostling catapillars, etc) but they were mostly quite bad. Then we decided to have the initials
GG instead so we could say that we are GG. We came up with great giraffes, graceful geese, gambling grasshoppers, gigantic gundos, before finally settling on green goblin. Cool right? Then our matches could be like spiderman vs green goblin or batman vs joker, etc. LOL.
As you can see, i had a really productive day. And now, i shall end this wonderful day by catching up on my play and rest hours. Haha. See you all on Monday! There's training right?
Signing off,
Sarah.
